Playstation 3 Folding Team Assignment

Mon Feb 16, 2009 12:27 am

I just re-connected my PS3 to my wireless network for the first time in about 8 months. Among other updates it now updated the folding @ home menu so that it now calls it "Living with Playstation".

I do not know how to assign my PS3 to my team and I can't tell if it's folding or not...

There is a nice overlay of a world map... NONE of the options I've selected brings up a clear way for me to see if I am folding and to see HOW to assign my PS3 to my team..

Two questions:

1.) How do I know it's folding?
2.) How do I assign my PS3 to my team?

Pressing the Triangle does not doesn't do it. This brings up a menu with Current Channel,Configuration,Music,Help,ABOUT None of which offers me the opportunity to enter my team number nor an opportunity to monitor my PPD MEH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why did they do it this way. It must turn so many people off!

1. Hold down square and select the folding@home view.
2. Hit triangle and to bring up a menu.
3. Select current channel and press right on the dpad or X.
4. Go down to where it says Identity press right or X.
5. Select your donor name and enter it or select your team number and enter it.

Also hitting the select button while on the folding screen toggles the views and stats on screen for your viewing pleasure.
